Description

Kia ora, hallo, hello!
a kiwi spotted in Europe.... I've just finished travelling through UK, France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, and Albania. It has been absolutely amazing and i am so grateful for all the new experiences, friends and memories. i am looking to stay put somewhere for a while and to enjoy working on a project or with people.

In New Zealand we're known for being outdoorsy and adventurous which is true i love to go out surfing, skiing and hiking/foraging-i love taking my little foraging book to see what i can find right at my doorstep.
I also find happiness being calm and creative through drawing, painting, crafting, reading and music.
